CENTRAL VALLEY HABITAT FOR HUMANITY is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, the ecumenical Christian housing ministry founded by Millard and Linda Fuller in 1976. Central Valley Habitat was organized in 1988 when a group of volunteers at the Bridgewater Interchurch Food Pantry became concerned about the deplorable housing conditions they saw in the community. They incorporated as a non-profit organization and were approved as a Habitat affiliate. Central Valley Habitat dedicated its first house in Grottoes in 1989. Since then, Central Valley Habitat for Humanity has continued to build simple, decent homes for sale to low-income families at no profit and no interest in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County. As of the summer of 2009, CVHfH has completed 45 homes in Bridgewater, Briery Branch, Broadway, Elkton, Grottoes, Harrisonburg, Hinton, and Timberville. The cooperative effort between Habitat volunteers and partner families has grown to include three Habitat Campus Chapters at local schools, twenty-five Covenant Churches, and many local businesses and organizations.
